New Commands and Toolbar Buttons (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

While connecting to the Platform Builder IDE, an add-in adds its commands to the IDE. Optionally, the add-in can add toolbar buttons and key sequences for carrying out these commands.

When a user carries out a command provided by an add-in, the IDE calls a method associated with the command. This method specifies what the command is supposed to do. The Commands object associated with the add-in exposes its methods.

After connecting an add-in to the IDE, you can carry out the new add-in commands by using toolbar buttons or key sequences assigned to the commands.

Additionally, you can carry out commands by running them from the command line.
